Meet the General, Former Director of CIA, NSA that compares convoys of Americans waving U.S. Flags to Taliban
This Great General, this Brilliant Spy is retweeting some of the most intellectually challenged and divisive tweets.
One he received a lot of FLAK for was a graphic comparing Americans flying flags on their trucks with the murderous Taliban.
In another retweet, the Great General replied the “Can we send the MAGA wearing unvaxxed to Afghanistan, no use sending that plane back empty?” With “Good idea.” The gist of his twitter account is that any expression of freedom, whether disagreement with him or the government or expressions of free choice regarding vaccines, etc. are unacceptable in the United States.
